Cañon Mountain Camp

(Contact details as for Cañon Lodge)This simple converted sheep-shearing shed within driving distance of the lip of the canyon is a further offshoot of Cañon Lodge, and was opened in 2002. Visitors coming here should book in at the reception for Cañon Lodge, from where they will be directed to the camp. All meals and activities are shared with the lodge.

Accommodation is ideal for small groups or families who are self-catering. Basic but comfortable rooms are set around an enclosed courtyard, with separate toilets and showers, a communal kitchen and a large braai area overlooking the hills. There are plans under consideration to convert a small water reservoir into a swimming pool, but for now this remains a secluded spot with very few mod cons (there's no electricity), offering the opportunity to experience at first hand the peace of this unspoilt environment.
